5.0 out of 5 stars Shockingly high quality for a small price, October 16, 2001

There are lots of el-cheapo stock clip art collections out there that are plain awful... they show the top 5 pictures in their entire collection on the outside cover and the rest are garbage.

This is not the case with this collection. Super high quality studio shots of objects and people. The models do not appear to be professionals and in many instances seem to be grumpy or indifferent, so not many of the people are useful in different marketing situations.

The proprietary software that's included lets you search by a keyword or concept to find the photo or you can browse the high-quality book that's included to find what you're looking for. You can then export the image as a JPG for the web or as a hi-res image for print with a transparency mask for Photoshop.

The objects are top notch quality and can be used by advertising agencies or individuals who need high-quality royalty free photos. Not everything on earth is photographed, but they sure did cover a lot of territory with this set.

5.0 out of 5 stars Do not hesitate to buy!, June 9, 2001

This is an excellent collection of photos, not the useless vector clip art cartoons you find in some collections. The search engine is first class and the program as a whole is exceptionally easy to use and well thought out. No more searching through books to find the image you want. When I first bought it I wanted to really test it so I typed in "Ferrari". Before I could finish typing ten Ferrari's were ready for me to use. This is a great easy to use program that is fast and painless. Don't worry this is a no brainer-Just do it!

You must get this product if you want to come out of the depths of '80's Clip Art, Bad design is staring at us in the face every day, with this product, even the worst designs can at least look professional. Thanks for making it so easy!
